pole vault bags made from scratch

Unread postby prueitt_r » Tue Nov 12, 2013 3:18 pm

Hi,

Pole vault bags can be expensive when purchased from pole vault companies. I am offering two styles of pole vault bags for $60, shipping included.

The first style is the traditional tube style, 6" diameter and cut to the length you desire. For a more rigid carry system, get a 6" plastic drain line from your local home improvement store to slide down inside the bag.

The second style is more like the tool bag in the picture. There are 6 slots for poles. Cut to whatever length you need. The bag laid out flat measure 3' x 15'(or whatever size you need). The whole thing can be rolled up hot dog style when transporting.

Both styles are made from heavy duty 16 mil vinyl. Colors available are black or brown.

Contact for more details and special requests.
Velcro closure and carry strap also available.

Thanks,

Ray Prueitt

I started making those 2 years ago... I have made a set of 4 pole bags and 8-pole sleeve socks out of all different material... Found the canvas works great for 8-pole sleeve and Vinyl works great for pole bag... gotta get more options on material, then you will be ready to roll. Let me know when you have a few more options. PS are you sewing all the way down on your 7 pole system or tacking? that took me the longest part of it all. Good job man...

Hi,

Good response to the bags so far. I found a flexible 6" vent that I can add to make the bag more rigid. Not as heavy as pvc and saves you the trip to the hard ware store. It does add to my costs so I have to charge more, $20 but still much cheaper than ucs. Feel free to contact with questions.


Thanks,


Ray

Last call for these bags. As spring approaches, I will have less and less time to work on them.

Also, I can make them smaller diameter for less poles if need be.

Thanks,

Ray
